The European Space Agency (ESA) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Voyager Space and Airbus for the upcoming Starlab commercial space station. Set to launch in 2028, Starlab will provide an alternative low-Earth orbit destination after the retirement of the International Space Station (ISS) in 2030. The station will focus on science and technology development, offering opportunities for research, commercial business development, and European industrial and institutional contributions. The collaboration between ESA, Voyager Space, and Airbus aims to extend Europe's footprint in space and advance European science.
